Smack that, all on the floor, with a badminton racket!

Hello everyone! Welcome back to my sports blog! Today, I would like to share with you an interesting sport which I played during primary school. You must be wondering what sport it is righttttttt!! Without further ado, I would recommend badminton.

Badminton involves either 2 players or 4 players in order to carry out the game. I did not touch badminton for very long until last Tuesday, when I played with my group of friends. Indeed, it was enjoyable. I played it in Anchorvale community centre where I had to book a fee in order to play there. I prefer playing in an indoor court where it would not be affected by the wind.

The cost of booking a badminton court in the community centre cost for public: $6 (Off-Peak) and $7 (Peak). For additional benefit, Passion Card Member only cost $5 (Off-Peak) and $6 (Peak). Within the court, there are facilities such as water coolers and seats provided for people. There are f&b outlets which is MacDonald and convenience stores such as 7-11 that is just located 2 levels down the court.

Internet makes it even convenient for us to book the court where I can book it online or go down to the community centre and book it directly. After I paid for the badminton court booking, the staff passes me the badminton net and I was shocked. I thought the net would already be there in the court and I did not expect that I have to put the net by myself.

I think that playing badminton is a good sport for leisure time. You get to train every part of your body. It also helps to build up teamwork and rapport with your friends in a game of doubles. It is also a good sport if you are feeling stress as it will help to vent out your anger in the sport.
